Chapter 31: Assassinate When You Can't Win. Detestable!
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Congratulations to the host for upgrading your talent to an A+ rank!"
Suddenly, a burst of white light appeared within a meter of Ling Feng. Su Ranran, who was standing at the side, noticed this scene and subconsciously covered her eyes. It was too bright.
Ling Feng also felt as if a surge of power had suddenly appeared in his body. That feeling was simply too comfortable!
After a short while, the white light disappeared and Ling Feng returned to normal.
"Are you alright?" Su Ranran opened her eyes and asked worriedly.
"It's fine, it's fine. Just now, I felt that my talent was about to transform. It's a pity that I was just one step away. Ling Feng said with a smile."
Su Ranran was dumbfounded when she heard this.
He looked at Ling Feng as if he was a monster. "Speaking of which, didn't you just transform your talent?"
"What's going on? You're going to transform your talent again?"
A hint of worry appeared in Su Ranran's eyes when she heard that he had failed to transform.
Without waiting for her to ask, Ling Feng smiled and said, "Even though the transformation failed, it's not like I didn't gain anything. At least my innate ability has been strengthened!"
After speaking, Ling Feng summoned his clones. A white light flashed and twenty clones appeared around him. "I can now summon 20 clones after the enhancement, and each is 10% stronger than me!"
What he meant was that the current Ling Feng had 20 clones that were even stronger than him. If others knew about this, they would definitely be envious.
Only a few people would experience a transformation in their talent when they broke through to the next level. Ling Feng didn't have a breakthrough, and his talent didn't even change. He was just one step away from the next level, and he had such a significant improvement. Rare was an understatement.
Su Ranran's expression also became happy. After all, it was a good thing that Ling Feng had become stronger.
"That's great! You've become so strong! We can go to the same university in the future!"
"Probably," Ling Feng said.
Ling Feng didn't really look forward to a place like a university because he had the system. As long as there was a place where he could hunt and kill foreign races, he would be able to become stronger.
"It's getting late, we should go home," Ling Feng looked up at the sky and said.
Very quickly, the two of them returned to Fantasy City. After submitting their mission to the Awakener's Guild and receiving the reward of 100000 star coins, they bade each other farewell and returned to their respective homes.
For the next few days, Ling Feng and Su Ranran would meet outside the city every day to hunt for alien races. They would go out very early and return very late. Ling Feng's combat strength had also improved significantly, and he was now at the advanced Tier 2!
Su Ranran had also improved a lot. Although her combat strength had not improved, the control of her skills had reached a point of perfection, and her overall combat strength had also improved a lot.
Because Ling Feng had made quite a name for himself, he was also being watched by the major forces.
At the same time, in the Li family...
He was the third son of the Li family's master, and everyone called him Third Young Master. At this moment, Third Young Master was sitting there with his legs crossed and an investigation report in his hand.
The report showed Ling Feng's information.
"This Ling Feng only has A-rank talent, but he can display the combat power of an S-rank. He's an interesting kid. It's a pity that he offended Li Wu."
The third young master put the report aside and raised his head.
"If my Li family doesn't care about this, it will damage our Li family's face. If outsiders know about this, they will think that my Li family is afraid of this kid."
"Black Shadow, go to the dark market and inform Li Wu and the other man to put up a reward for Ling Feng.
After he said that, the air behind him rippled, and then a man in black who looked like an assassin walked in.
"As you wish!" He half-knelt on the ground.
Then, he disappeared.
In the hospital.
Li Cong lay on the bed and looked like he was in pain. He slowly sat up.
The pained expression on his face did not diminish.
"If I don't take revenge, I, Li Cong, am not a human!"
Then, he looked at Li Wu, who was sitting at the side. His eyes were cold as he continued, "Li Wu, go to the dark market and put up a bounty for Ling Feng's assassination. I will definitely kill Ling Feng!
Li Wu also nodded with a cold face, "Second uncle, don't worry! I will definitely make Ling Feng regret offending the Li family!"
In the principal's office.
The principal sat on the chair and placed the pen in his hand on the table. He looked at Secretary Qian.
"How's Su Ranran doing recently?"
Secretary Qian, who was standing at the side, said respectfully, "She and Ling Feng have accepted quite a few missions from the Awakened Guild. Recently, they have been hunting foreign races outside the city."
Upon hearing this, the principal raised his eyebrows and said, "The relationship between these two doesn't look ordinary!"
Then, the principal thought for a moment and continued, "Take care of Ling Feng when you see him. Go and tell the people below not to make things difficult for Ling Feng in the future. Do everything that he can do.
Hearing these words, Secretary Qian was a little stunned. After all, the principal's attitude towards Ling Feng could be said to be completely disdainful. He didn't know why such a change had occurred.
And this treatment was really too good for him!
"Principal, isn't this treatment a little inappropriate?"
The principal just smiled and said, "The important person is not Ling Feng, but Su Ranran. She was accepted by the elemental school of the top ten schools. In addition, Ling Feng's relationship with Su Ranran is not ordinary. Naturally, he has to treat Ling Feng better."
At this point, Secretary Qian suddenly realized and said, "Alright, alright. I'll go now!"
After that, Secretary Qian left the office.
In the weapon store.
The boss was sitting there and reading a book in boredom. Suddenly, as if he had sensed something, the beard by his mouth trembled.
Then, he walked out of the weapon store and closed it. He looked outside the city and walked out.
Ling Feng and Su Ranran were busy hunting the alien race and did not notice a pair of eyes hiding in the corner.
The eyes were fixed on the two of them, but there was no malice in them. Instead, they were filled with kindness. The old man smiled at the two of them and said indifferently, "This Ling Feng isn't a bad kid either. In such a short time, he's already able to gain combat power. His speed isn't any slower than Su Ranran's. It must be because of his clone.
"But it's really a pity. Without an S-rank talent, it's really hard to enter the Elemental Academy!
"But this Su Ranran has really opened my eyes. In such a short time, she's already mastered five innate skills. If she's allowed to continue developing, I'm sure she'll definitely be the pillar of my Elemental Academy's lightning faculty!
"I can't let anything happen to her, or I'll lose all my face!"
In the dark market...
The dark market was in the black market. There were all kinds of things in the black market, while the dark market was a place dedicated to killing and robbing.
On the bounty list of the dark market, there was an extremely lucrative reward for an assassination. It was even at the top of the list. Many people were shocked when they saw it.
"It's actually a reward for killing someone. This is really rare!"
"That's right. I can't believe I'm getting such a high reward for killing a mere a-rank student. I'm tempted. I'll take it!"
After a short while, many people accepted the mission. After all, the reward for this mission was too high, and the target was too weak.
In everyone's eyes, it was a free order.
After the assassin received the mission, he quickly rushed out of the city and set up an ambush at the place where Ling Feng would definitely pass by when he returned to the city, the rocky hill!
In the Bai family, a middle-aged man was sitting in the study, as if waiting for someone.
"You were looking for me, father?" Bai Xiaosa walked in, a little disgruntled. After all, he had just cultivated.
Anyone who was interrupted in the middle of their cultivation would have this kind of attitude, and their tone was somewhat impatient.
Bai Qianlang patted Bai Xiaosa's shoulder and said with a smile, "What's wrong? You're still angry with your father? I'm here to tell you some news, bad news."
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosa shrugged his shoulders indifferently. Anyway, even if the sky fell, his father would be there to hold it up, so what was there to be afraid of?
Bai Qianlang had naturally guessed Bai Xiaosa's reaction, so he said with a smile, "I just received news that Ling Feng is on the bounty list of the dark market, and the reward is extremely generous, a total of 500000 star coins!
Upon hearing this, Bai Xiaosa's expression changed instantly as he hurriedly asked, "Did anyone accept the mission? If not, we'll quickly spend money to cancel the mission!"
There was a rule in the dark market. If no one accepted the bounty, the other party could spend money to cancel the bounty. After the cancellation, the same bounty could not be reissued within a month.
Or it could be said that money could buy a month's life.
"It's a pity that it's too late. They've already been picked up, and that wave of assassins has already left the city," Bai Qianlang said.
Hearing this, Bai Xiaosa's heart sank. The assassin had already left the city, and Ling Feng's life was in danger. Then, the memory of the five of them drinking together a few days ago appeared in his mind.
The four had yet to complete their pledge ceremony. At the thought of this, Bai Xiaosa's heart ached.
"You can save him, can't you, father?" Bai Xiaosa had placed his last hope on Bai Qianlang.
It was also the first time Bai Qianlang had seen his son like this, and he said, "It's possible, but you'll offend some people, and you'll have to pay a price."
"That's good. Father, as long as you save Lingfeng's life, I'll listen to whatever you say in the future!" Bai Xiaosa said seriously.
"Alright, then you can go to the void academy in advance!" Bai Qianlang said after thinking for a while.
"Good! I promise!" Bai Xiaosa said through gritted teeth.
